    Underground RO tank

    I dont think an underground tank would collapse unless it had no water in it for a long period of time. Thats pretty cool idea though to have an underground tank in equipment room.

    Crypto Swipers with Tap Plus install?

    Fleet accounts is one reason. I love the cryptopay fleet program and have a lot of accounts so unless they figure out how to do it with the tap plus using the camera or tap cards im still gonna keep the swipers. Also some older folks are always stuck in there ways. Cant blame them. Small...

    Hamilton HTK need upgrade or CC won't work starting June 17

    Thought id share. Got a call from Hamilton today. My HTK is about 5 years old running windows 8. Apparently windows 8 is discontinued and the HTK's that have it need to either do a hard drive replacement for about $300 or buy a new controller for $2300 in order to accept credit cards past June...

    Chemical shipping cost?

    Dont ever go off of soap for price per gallon. It's price per car that you want to compare. All soap is differant. Find one that you can get a good cost per car even if it's twice as much per gallon. it doesn't matter. Sounds like you're new. I would not be buying online. You need to find a...

    Chemical shipping cost?

    What do you currently use? Stone soap is local to me and I tried them about maybe 6 years ago. Same products they sell now. Absolute garbage for touchless. Self serve you can get by but expect to use a lot of it.

    Remote plug

    He’s trying to kill his WiFi. If you use a WiFi plug to kill it you will have no way of turning it back on.

    Cat310 Pressure Drop

    If you replaced the regulators on both pumps recently then there is no reason they should be going bad. Check and make sure your presoak bypass solenoid is closing fully when HP rinse is engaged.

    Connecting a power supply in JCC vac

    No problem sir. Wow that is an old system. Was ahead of it time though then. If your not using it for credit card processing which it doesn't sound like and only for washing bays then you should look into purchasing some turn on switch locks from coleman. You already have the spot cut out in...

    CAT310 pump

    Ive always set my pressure in self serve bays adjusting the regulator with the gun trigger pulled in. Since you have two pumps having same issue are you sure there not being starved of water? Are they both drawing from same tank? Is there check valves on the incomming water supply that could...

    Connecting a power supply in JCC vac

    That’s a 24AC transformer not DC. You can get a 24v AC to 24v DC converter and use the blue and yellow wires on the left side of transformer as power. If you want to use your 220v power supply then attach the two leads for power to the black and orange wires on the right side of the AC...

    Need Help Replacing Float Valve – Which One?

    I thought so. Your welcome. If it's been that long just buy the new one for $80. It beats your equipment room flooding at 2am and getting a call from your alarm company telling you police are dispatched because a motion detector went off.

    Remote plug

    Why do you even need this? Curious. You can always put an outlet timer on your wifi that power cycles at night for few minutes or so but won't be remotely controlled. You could use a wifi smart plug. Every time you turn the plug on it would activate a timer relay (powered by a separate voltage...
